First of all, Pecola has been raised to believe that "black" is ugly, he looks don't particularly matter, as she doesn't see any kind of beauty whatsoever in the women of the black race (how sad). Outside of a very basic physical description in which we learn she has nappy hair and dark eyes, I really don't see anything else......
